"You want to protect him?"
Nightmare True Monarch looked at the Mansion Master of Xuan Snake blocking his way, then turned to glance at Ji Yuan standing on the sand dune, seemingly somewhat unsettled.
"The two of you have never had any interactions. Are you sure you want to protect him, Xuan Snake?"
"Heh."
The Mansion Master of Xuan Snake let out a cold laugh and raised his hand, then said, "Does it matter? I, Xuan Snake, simply cannot stand your behavior, Nightmare, of cruelly killing disciples. First, it was Bone Nightmare, then the Qiu Qianhai you want to seize, and now, even a disciple you supposedly picked up by the wayside, you're after!"
"Even a beast doesn't eat its own young. Though I may be venomous, I, Xuan Snake, would never commit such acts of slaughtering disciples. I just can't stand your conduct, what of it?"
"Alright, alright, alright."
Though Nightmare True Monarch was angry, he wasn't so blinded by rage as to lose his reason.
